Systematic surveillance of immune-related adverse events in clinical practice and impact of subsequent steroid medication on survival outcomes.

Steroid treatment for irAE does not affect prognosis and should thus be used promptly to control inflammation.

The irAE characteristics in each regimen should be clarified to establish and provide more sophisticated irAE management, and the current findings will be beneficial to this goal.
